    Criminal Records, Expungement Conceal Carry Question in Ohio

    The firearm must have been manufactured prior to a certain year (1898 or 1897 I think). Replicas of such guns are not exempt. I believe you misread the federal statute regarding 2 years.

    Out of State driver, got a ticket. Should I get a new license?

    Like the judge said, get the ticket taken care of. Call an attorney in Minnesota (and check traffic atty. sites in Minnesota) to see what can be done. Then try and do it yourself. Some states will allow you to take traffic school, even in another state. Also call the prosecutor and see if they...

    Pleading no contest to 'following too close' ticket?

    You said both cars were stopped.:dunno: Why would the car that you pushed into another, get a ticket for following too closely.:biglol: If you use that logic, then the cop could use the logic that you were following both cars too closely and give you 2 tickets.

    Lawsuit?, accident? You didn't mention anything about an accident in your first post. What else did you leave out?

    Getting character reference letters

    I never heard of using character reference letters for a traffic ticket and doubt very much that it'll make any difference. Don't lessen your integrity by going to your grandfather's doctor for a reference letter, especially for something so minor as a traffic ticket. Stubborness is something...

    Speeding ticket... court or pay it

    You were on a hill trying to slow down? I don't think that defense will work. You should have already slowed down. Even big rigs can do the speed limit down hill. If you hadn't gotten to the 45 mph zone, then it wasn't yet 45 mph. That defense won't work either. If they offer traffic...

    Can an officer issue a citation for a offense after you leave the location

    Don't forget to call the prosecutor and try to get a deferred adjudication. Unless you were a jerk to the cop, they'll usually give it to you, which means you pay a fine but it stays off your driving record.

    Can an officer issue a citation for a offense after you leave the location

    In Ohio, you only pay the fine for the first offense. Any subsequent offense on the summons is dismissed. Hopefully the headlight ticket was listed first, that means nothing goes on your record.

    Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft son charged with Felony Larceny

    Before you write him off as guilty... Read each of the statutes he's been accused of violating. You can find the statutes on findlaw.com or just type the statute number and state, into a search engine such as yahoo. Read and understand each of the elements of the crime. Determine whether...

    Harassment, Stalking, Misconduct Disorderly Conduct

    Contact an attorney. I'll bet he'll have a good chance getting the case dismissed. They don't need to read you your rights if they're not going to question you. It's always best not to confront people the way you and your friend did. You could have avoided the arrest and gotten really good...

    Pulled over just to tell me my license was suspended. No other reason.

    Contact the court to see if there is a recording of the court proceeding and buy a copy. Double check. It's possible the judge did in fact forget to tell you. I was on a grand jury once, and the Deputy County Attorney MUST establish jurisdiction before we could hand down an indictment. The DCA...

    Assault & Battery Falsely accussed of simple assault

    I didn't read through all that, so I'm not sure what state you're in. Talk to his atty. and ask about the legality of tape recording a phone call between your fiance and his ex.. It's legal in all but a few states. He may be able to get her to brag about how she lied to police to get him in...

    Arrest, Search, Seizure, Warrant Speeding ticket

    A thousand is way too high. What did the atty. tell you that he could get done? You can usually do it yourself, if you know what that court allows. Call other atty's as well, just to ask what can be done in that court These no's. are attorney referral agencies for traffic tickets...

    Arrest, Search, Seizure, Warrant Speeding ticket

    Depends where in Tennessee it occured. I've gotten probably 15 tickets in the past few years, 6 in Tennessee (not to mention all the times I get stopped and the ofcr. just gives me a verbal warning) and my driving record is spotless. They never went on my driving record. How to handle it...

    Weapons, Guns, Firearms The National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) problem

    -Call the FBI in West Virginia where the records are kept and ask them. -The gun store has their number and a pamphlet telling you how to appeal their decision. -Call the court where you were convicted and ask if it was a misdemeanor or a felony. -If it was a felony, check Alabama laws...
